One of the Gifts He Gave Me

People often ask me where the inspiration for this

poetry I write comes from
My answer use to be
Well, the inspiration can come from anywhere

I've started noticing that much of the poetry I write
these days is coming from a much deeper place and
I am just the soulful vessel through which verse flows
In other words I am the pen
He uses to get some of His messages across
This is one of the gifts He gave me and
I will continue to carry on the honor of
this gift for as long as He allows
